Hello being TSATF kind of semi skirmish game my favourite one..more or less for every period ..i was thinking, in order to avoid painting also the casualties figures that are frequently generated and needed by this rule systhem, to try to use some printed paper casualty markers like those offered by Junior General..i konw they are ugly but i would like to know, please, if somebody experimented this way..and if they are any other casualties sets (possibly more realistic) to purchase or to find on the web

You could do something like this yourself. You paint 1 casualty figure completely based and ready to go. Take a top down photo. Stamp them out on a 1 page sized graphic scaled to size and print. I don't think the JG figures are terrible. The selection you have looks like they are doing jumping jacks and other exercises. They could be better with a textured background.

Reminded me somewhat of the Jeremy Brett – Sherlock Holmes episode: "The Dancing Men." |

No. Make casualty figures. Then make a mold, even using cheap, latex brush on stuff, and even pour plaster. Anything but paper on the table. I use paint, then sand or dirt, then paint for my gaming tables, and don't like dumping figures down on a sand table. So, I make a LOT of casualty figs. |

It does sorta look like Fredrick the Great got his musketeers to do the Y-M-C-A dance. Regards David F Brown |
